THats what I said in the other post minus the Black isle comment and not only that the dude is a producer which as I stated in the other thread has no control over the design aspects. He is a paper pusher that handles human resources and money. If it was the original designer I would say maybe but not the paper pusher.

I just don’t understand the naivety. I definitely share your excitement about the past and turnbased games, but I don’t see anything amazing about a businessman remaking a game he hasn’t touched since 1988.

If the military called in someones 76 year old grandfather to fight in Afghanistan, based on how well he did in Vietnam, I’d have the same reaction.

“… Really?”

One mistake doesn’t make me lose hope in a team, specially if some of them have worked on my all time fave games like Fallout 1-2. Plus, this is a freaking TURN-BASED, old-school RPG.

Even if it turns out to be shit (Hopefully not), that type of game would be more fun and worthier than hundreds of GOTY nominated shooters in my book.

I sent Fargo a PM over KickStarter with three very hard questions. I admit, they were probably the strangest questions he’s been asked, but if I do anything it’s think (and too much of that).

Funny thing with that was that the guy who was screening them said that in over 500 messages, what I’d sent was by far and wide the most interesting, and that Fargo would be more than happy to answer them. So just waiting to see what happens with that.

I’m mildly hoping that they answer them publically, since it’s areas where I feel gaming has stagnated a little. I’d love to get developers and writers thinking on some of those questions.

If I get a non-public reply back from him, I may just share it anyway.

That’s if I feel brave enough to at the time.
